Conventional Single Station Machine Vices

A single-station vice holds one part in one fixed position — no swivel base, no hydraulic spindle, no self-centring mechanism. That simplicity is exactly why it's the vice most jobbing shops reach for first: fewer moving parts to wear, lower cost, and enough clamping force for the vast majority of milling and drilling setups.

Nicon's lockdown-jaw MMV range covers four jaw widths — MMV-100 (38mm x 110mm), MMV-150, MMV-160+ (48mm x 160mm) and MMV-200 — with interchangeable hard, soft aluminium, soft steel, serrated, stepped and vee jaw sets so one vice body adapts to round bar, finished surfaces or repeat batch work. Bison's fixed-jaw range adds precision ground models (6620 series) and versions with a moveable rear jaw (6512 series) for handling parts of varying length without repositioning the front jaw.

Replacement and spare jaw sets for the Nicon range are stocked under Jaw Sets. If you need hydraulic clamping force or 5-axis holding, see the full Machine Vices range.
